Gymnastics leotards

Gymnastics leotards were first invented by French acrobatic performer, Jules Leotard. Even though the name didn’t catch on until many years after his death, it quickly became the standard apparel for gymnasts, acrobats, actors and circus performers.

Today, there are many different styles of gymnastics leotards, including:

• Short-sleeved
• Long-sleeved
• Sleeveless tanks
• Camisoles
• Halters

It’s very important to try gymnastics leotards on before buying them to make sure they fit. There’s nothing more uncomfortable that an outfit that’s too tight and constricts breathing. Baggy clothing may also be dangerous and obstructive while performing technical acrobatics.
